I'll ask the programmers what's going on, since the entries in [Edit forum options] and Email on post should be co-ordinated. They are for me; if I uncheck this forum in [Edit forum options] it changes email on post to No. Notify is different, and relates to just that thread, but I'll bring it up anyway. Might be a good idea (it's been mentioned before) to have that default to No. Kev.
